Jo has explained it at the website (under FAQ), here's
the quote:

"You say that people cannot Apparate or Disapparate
within Hogwarts and yet Dobby manages it, why is this?
House-elves are different from wizards; they have
their own brand of magic, and the ability to appear
and disappear within the castle is necessary to them
if they are to go about their work unseen, as
house-elves traditionally do."

As for other beings, I don't think they can, only
elves
